After 10 games just 1 goal separates the sides. Both sides have 9 points & the Gills have scored 3 more goals but conceded 4 more.

The Shrews secured just 2 league wins in a row last season twice but have yet to win any of their last 8 matches.

There've been only 9 goals scored in Shrewsbury home games this season (the 2nd fewest in L1), an average of a goal every 50 mins. However there have been 19 scored in Gills away games over the same number of games, an average of a goal every 23.7 mins.

Despite conceding the the most penalties in League 1 last season (9) they picked up the fewest cautions (36) and only 2 red cards.

The Gills have won just 3 out of 26 matches away to Shrewsbury but have managed 9 draws. Overall wins are 20-18 to the hosts.

The last time this fixture was played was in January 2012, a 2-0 win to the hosts with goals from Shane Cansdell-Sheriff & Mark Wright.
The last Gills away win was back in October 1996.
